The food was delicious for what I got it seems simple but fulfilled my appetite and that is what counted for the time I bought here. I gotten from Din ho menu and it was good and it was tasty . The place is clean and simple to order.

These ghost kitchens have a good concept, but the execution is lacking.Basically, you order at a kisok and they bring the food out to you, like take out style. It's suppose to be cheaper than a restaurant, but it's not really. It's pretty pricey and they do not have much selection. It's in an industrial part of town and probably not many people know about it. Will skip in the future unless they add more restaurants.

I like the touch of the tv screens with the video playing. Also there are 14 restaurants to pick and choose from!

it's a self service kiosk for multiple businesses. No sitting area or tables, you just order in a tablet with a mannequin or statue dressed up as a butler in front of it.I don't get the point of asking for a 18% minimum tip if you're literally servicing yourself + wait time is just so long for few orders and you have to wait outside. We ordered two meals and took at least 30mins, food is mediocre, probably not the place for us, definitely not coming back again

trash, they don't even attend you, I rang the doorbell like 10 times before I gave up

My daughter recommended that we try this place. We ordered our ramen on their website as instructed. I had the tonkotsu ramen and it was very good. The Cha shi was tasty and there was more pieces than I sometimes get in a sit down place. The broth was delicious and the noodles were not overly cooked. The dish was given to us in separate containers so that the broth was separate from the rest. I will come back to try other dishes. I was about 5-10 minutes past the estimated pickup time but that wasn't an issue because they took a few minutes to get my order. I was concerned that my ramen might have been packaged and getting cold but that didn't appear to be the case.

The Smart Kitchen format was kind of weird at first, but once we actually got there and got used to it, it’s an interesting way to operate a group of restaurants and not bad.The issue for us was locating the place. We actually attempted to find it twice. The first time was at night time and we could just not figure out which one was the location. Its located in an industrial look park of warehouses none distinguishable from the next. The second time we realized we were driving around behind the location and found it. We tried the empanada maker and the sushi mini cup from the sushi place. Both were very good. The veggie empanadas were ok, but the spinach ones were very good. The chicken was good as well.

This Smart Kitchen concept is similar to that of Kitchen United. Basically, a bunch of restaurant kitchens sharing a single "Front". You place orders on Kiosks, and the appropriate restaurant will receive your order and bring it out to you.We drove here specifically for Menya Irvine which is one of the restaurant options. Yelp says they open at 12 PM, since we got there a little early.. we waiting until 12 PM to check the Kiosk for Menya. Menya never showed up. We ended up ordering from other restaurants in the kiosk menu. The ordering process is a little undone, it looks like most of the restaurants never completed their onboarding process. No photos, confusing menus, and no descriptions.After ordering our food and waiting, we noticed that someone came and picked up their order from Menya. Its possible that their menu was only available online? Not sure, but overall the experience was disappointing to say the least.Lots of room for improvement at this establishment, but right now I'd give it a D rating.Other things out of their control: 1) No restrooms2) The sewer manhole is right in front of the restaurant, so it smells like sewage.

Best Tortas Ever!! The udon unequivocally bussin. 11/10 would eat again. I have to add one more sentence.
This is the future! Feels like the Jetsons where you press a button and food comes out magically. There's an app you could download to access the different restaurants. They have 8 including Japanese, Thai food, Chinese, Mexican, etc( All of which have good reviews on Yelp)It might seem overwhelming for those who are not tech savvy but there are menus set on screens on the side walls, and once you are done then you go the center kiosk and order. They will then prepare the food in the back and you set the food on the cart next to the kiosk. :)

Found this place by accident but it's such a great idea. It's a 1 stop shop for 4 different restaurants who cook in the back and bring it out to you when it's done. Unfortunately, I didn't take picture but the potion size was decent, I ordered from the Asian cuisine side. The taste was excellent. At this moment, I forgot what I ordered but remember the sweet flavor of the thinly sliced meat that covered the rice well. I also ordered the tacos and those were okay. Nothing special about them to mention but also worth trying.
